WMUB Stream Not working in iTunes (Mac):
--Some people have reported success by sorting iTunes by song title
--We have now eliminated the opening message; clicking on "MP3" from the WMUB home page should jump straight to the stream. Or this:
--in iTunes, choose Advanced menu --> Open Stream
--Paste or type the following URL into the URL field and then click the "OK" button:
--http://pubint.ic.llnwd.net/stream/pubint_wmub
--This will also skip the two extra things that normally play before you get to the stream.
